How did this happen? 2 Kings24:1 In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim became his servant three years: --- then he turned and rebelled against him. 2 And the LORD sent against him bands of the Chaldees, and bands of the Syrians, and bands of the Moabites, and bands of the children of Ammon, and sent them against Judah to destroy it, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by his servants the prophets.

Why the book of Daniel is tough on the Bible critic!

• Linguistic evidence as verified by experts show it was written long before Christ.

• Many prophecies in Daniel take place well after it can be shown the book was written.

• The Dead Sea scrolls give hard evidence Daniel was written well before Christ.

The book of Daniel is tough on the Bible critic!

The Dead Sea Scrolls discovered in 1947 contain fragments of the book of Daniel.

Every book of the O.T. contain at least fragments but the book of Esther.

Their dating is thought to date back to 150 B.C.

Carbon 14 tests which dates the hunks of linen wrapped around the scrolls at about 33 A.D. plus or minus two centuries.

• A MAJOR ASSUMPTION IS MADE IN CARBON 14 THAT THE EARTH’S ATMOSPHERE HAS REMAINED THE SAME.

• POTASSIUM TO ARGON DOESN’T NEED TO MAKE THIS ASSUMPTION.

Carbon 14 is produced by cosmic radiation colliding with nitrogen atoms. Living things absorb carbon 14 but the process stops when the organism dies. Carbon 14 is radioactive with 5700 year half life.

Daniel1:6 Now among these were of the children of Judah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah:

• Daniel had Christadelphian room-mates. (Dan. 1:6,16) – (very helpful)

• Daniel prayed to God, morning, noon, and night. (Dan. 6:10)

• Having a special diet helps in remaining separate. What if it is not possible to

have a Christadelphian room mate?

What about giving our children Bible names?

• Daniel1:6 Now among these were of the children of Judah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: – Daniel = God is my judge– Hananiah = God has been

gracious– Mishael = Who is what God is– Azariah = Helped of God– Why do we remember the Gentile

names for Daniel’s friends and not the Hebrew names?

– Having good mentors helps
